About this home

Perched on a promontory lot at the top of one of Trousdale Estates' most coveted cul-de-sacs, 305 Trousdale Place presents a rare opportunity to own a multi-level estate with breathtaking, unobstructed views from Downtown LA to the Pacific Ocean. The grandfathered-in structure built 80 feet into the hillside consists of an approximately 10,000 SF residence featuring 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, expansive terraces, a pool, and an indoor racquetball court, all framed by floor-to-ceiling glass. Reflecting classic Mid-Century Modern design, the home offers an open floor plan with a spacious great room, dining area, kitchen, primary suite, guest suites, library, and a separate guest house below. Included in the sale are conceptual plans by renowned architect Michele Saee, AIA, envisioning "The Butterfly House", a striking approximately 7,990 SF design with the potential to expand to approximately 18,000 SF (subject to city approval). With its distinctive building envelope, unique lot shape, and rare terrain and topography, this property offers an unparalleled opportunity to reimagine an architectural gem on one of LA's most iconic view lots. A true trophy property for a discerning buyer or visionary developer.
